Course Substitution Policy

A course may be substituted for a required course in a curriculum if the course being substituted is the functional equivalent of the required course. It is the student’s responsibility to initiate a request for course substitution with their advisor. The form is forwarded to the appropriate instructional director for approval. If approved at that level, the request will then be forwarded to the Director for Admissions and Records for review and final approval. The request for course substitution will be placed in the student’s permanent academic record. Financial aid and veterans’ benefits recipients may be limited in the number of course substitutions by federal regulations.
